MARTHA'S PRISON ROOMMATE REVEALED!
Martha Stewart
Martha Stewart has become buddies with her new roommate -- a convicted **** dealer! A source tells Star that Stewart, 63, shares a room in housing unit J-11 at West Virginia's Alderson Federal Prison Camp with Kimberly Renee Bennett, 32, who's serving a 50-month sentence for her involvement in a North Carolina- based ****-distribution and money-laundering ring. Court papers say the gang sold at least 500 kilograms of **** and sent millions of dollars out of the country between 1996 and 2002. "Martha and Kimberly get along just fine," says the source. "Martha shares some of her microwave meals with Kim. And Bennett was even seen giving Stewart a neck massage on Nov. 7."
The source says their relationship is a far cry from the one between Stewart and her first roommate. "When Martha arrived at the prison Oct. 8, they put her with a tough woman from Washington, D.C., nicknamed Peanut. The source claims that Peanut had it out for Stewart. She threw a fit, so Martha was re-assigned to Kimberly Bennett's quarters." There have been no squabbles between Stewart and Bennett, says the source, who adds: "Kimberly doesn't mind that Martha took the bottom bed in their doubledecker bunk." Speaking of beds, here's a word of warning for Martha: When arrested at her Greensboro, N.C., condo in October 2002, authorities found a .22 caliber revolver under Bennett's master bedroom mattress!
